BRKG: NCAA hits Penn State football with $60 million fine, vacates Paterno's wins from 1998-2011

Re: BRKG: NCAA hits Penn State football with $60 million fine, vacates Paterno's wins from 1998-2011

Fuck that! What about those higher ups who just buried what Sandusky was doing? Are they going to get away scott free? They were aiding and abetting a felon...that is a CRIME. Are there going to be prosecutions?

This is bullshit if these fines and shit are all that's done.

Who cares about their precious fucking football program. It's a damn game. There were lives destroyed because of that damn pedophile. Heads should roll and people should be in PRISON....including his fucking dishrag look-the-other-way scumbag wife.

I'm tellin ya man....this steams my fucking clams. It's like if your some kinda sports celebrity or higher up person you can do all sorts of illegal activities and then go "oops...sorry"...and the law looks the other way or slaps you on the wrist with bullshit "fines".

Everybody knows that you or I would be thrown UNDER the prison if we did those same things.

THe justice system in this fucking country SUCKS ASS.

If you ever wanna get away with something just get rich enough or famous enough and you can pretty much get away with anything.

None of these alleged crimes had anything to do with winning, losing, or recruiting. Somebody there pissed off TPTB.

In his book, "Between Two Ages," Brzezinski wrote: "The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values."

Re: BRKG: NCAA hits Penn State football with $60 million fine, vacates Paterno's wins from 1998-2011

In many ways this is worse than the death penalty. Allowing players to be eligible immediately with transfers means the phones are ringing off the wall now for the good players. Requiring PSU to honor football scholarships for any football player that wants to quit football but finish his education means all those 3rd string guys that were scout team members can now sit back and relax while taking up scholarships that now have dropped to half of what are normally available.

In effect the NCAA has killed the program for at least 8 years without having PSU being able to say "woe is me, the mean NCAA used the death penalty wrongfully against us".

The 60 million isn't that big of a deal, but the 4 years of no bowls is huge financially. And having only 55 scholarships to field 22 FBS level players makes it an impossilbe task to be competitive.

If PSU were smart they would suspend their program of their on volition to save the embarrassment of becoming everyone's homecoming opponent for the next 8 years. If not there will be alot of 65-0 scores against them in that time.

From one who lives nearby, though not a football fan,I believe a criminal investigation takes priority over the "exit -typejob " investigation.Jo Pa is dead and can't defend himself. To remove his statue and taKe away his record is not fair as he cant answer allegations now. Did you know that for I can't remember how many years now, he reverted all his earnings back to Penn State and lived on his pension and SosSec only for the love of Penn State and football. Sure if Sandusky is guilty, punish him, and the man who did not stop the incident when he saw it (instead a coward ran to the athletic office) but to date there has not been a trial against Jo Pa. He reported it.what else can he do. Punish penn state security who did not act on Jo Pas notices.

IMHO: Not enough.

They are still part of the Big 10 Conference, for now.

I would think the other 11 teams want them out. I know I won't be going to any PSU/UW games.

Kick them out of the Big Ten!!!

Quoting: wisc_natureboy

Selfishly, as a Buckeye fan, I want them out of the Big 10. They are going to be awful, and make it that much harder for any Big 10 team to get into the Nat'l Championship. The Big 10 is going to look like more of a joke than before, it doesn't need anymore one-win teams. Killing the strength of schedule for the good teams.

What does everyone think? Does the punishment fit the crime?

Quoting: Sleeping Giant

Yes! I know some will say that they are punishing everyone, for one person's crimes, but there had to of been more people who at least suspected what was going on. If they truly had cared about their school they would have come forward. They obviously cared nothing for their students past, present and future, then, so I can't see why they would care now.

Penn state is tainted now. And Sandusky, Paterno, and all who looked on silently did that.

Penn state's football program now knows what it's like to get fucked.

We are judged as much by what we say as what we didn't say.

And by and by Christopher Robin came to an end of things, and he was silent, and he sat there, looking out over the world, just wishing it wouldn't stop.

Everybody is trying to say how horrible of a person joepa was, but fail to mention that when he first heard about what was going on, he did take it to the DA and corbett who just completely ignored it. IF anything, Tom corbett should be punished also

Then Joepa in all his goodness, should have quit, till something was done. He should have went to the police or something, anything.

Think of the horror of some nasty bad breath smelling old man trying to have sex with your son, or nephew, neighbor, whom ever. You can't put a price on the hours that child spent feeling guilty and dirty. Kid's don't think like adults do they don't rationalize, they internalize.

I'd say take Sandusky's and nail him by his penis, to a tree, set the tree on fire, and hand him an ax.

Re: BRKG: NCAA hits Penn State football with $60 million fine, vacates Paterno's wins from 1998-2011

Their entire football program should be dismantled. The sick bastards who covered for Sandusky placed football over children's welfare. Based on their behavior, the student body did too. This school deserves to lose ots precious football program, and the administrators who covered this up for 14 years should be prosecuted AND sued.
